Covington Breaks Through For First Win of 2017 at Grays Harbor

July 19th, 2017 by Wade Huisman

Matt would start off Friday night with a heat win after rolling out 4th. The win would gain Covington the outside front row starting spot for the feature. After two failed start attempts, Covington would take advantage of the third one to get the jump and pace the field through the first part of the race. Fending off several mid-race charges from Aaron Reutzel and Sam Hafertepe Jr, Covington would hold strong and close it out for his first win of 2017, leading all 25 laps.
